Based on my experiences..:My friend recently picked Captain Falcon up and I was just wondering if there is a character that is for sure the best matchup against him
I'd have to agree with this; in particular, with Diddy. I don't think Diddy specifically counters Falcon, he's just an all-around good character to use who is better than Falcon.Honestly, I don't think diddy or sheik present an incredibly tough matchup against falcon. Diddy and sheik are just good characters, so they're going to have a decent time fighting against a majority of the cast. And of course, if the falcon player doesn't know how to deal with these characters, he's going to be in trouble - but that can be said about almost any character. I certainly don't think that falcon has a disadvantage if both of you are at the same skill level though.
In my opinion, characters like pikachu, ness, and mario present pretty tough matchups.
I'm sorry, what? Shiek gives Falcon quite a hard time, IMO. Needles are great against him, she combos and edgeguards like a boss, how does she not have a slight advantage at least?Sheik isn't a good character she can play well all game and make one mistake and lose it all. I think the only bad matchup for falcon would probably be link because you cant approach him at all from the ground
sheik's stuff is ridiculously safe, so that doesn't happen much, and she can often punish our mistakes more than hers, especially if she can get us off stage which means falcon should be dead 90% of the time.You can always make a mistake and lose it all in a close match, regardless of character choices. Sheik has some great combos, the captain doesn't really have many fool proof ones. everything else has already been covered thoroughly.
Emphasis added.most of his attacks only deliver one hit; this can result in Captain Falcon getting shield-grabbed if Rosalina successfully blocks any of his single hit attacks, such as Raptor Boost and Falcon Kick.
I guess in a way, it all comes down to if Captain Falcon can get the Luma out of the picture. Without the Luma, Rosalina would have to resort to defensive play, but because Captain Falcon is very mobile on foot, it's almost impossible for her to get away from him.All in all, I don't see Rosilina as a viable option for fighting Captain Douglas Jay Falcon
Agreed.I guess in a way, it all comes down to if Captain Falcon can get the Luma out of the picture.
